SpeedUpMyComputer Removal Guide

Do you know what SpeedUpMyComputer is?

It has been discovered that SpeedUpMyComputer is a PUP – potentially unwanted program. The program is promoted as a tool which can speed up your personal computer and help you solve problems which supposedly have caused the slow-down of the system. As our researchers have disclosed, the program is not critically malicious and it can detect some problems which truly exist within your operating system. Nonetheless, this does not mean that you should install the application and then pay $9.95 for its full version. We recommend that you remove SpeedUpMyComputer from the operating Windows system and delete applications which come bundled with the suspicious system optimizer.

SmartTweak Software presents SpeedUpMyComputer at smarttweak.us/smc/details, and you can visit this site to download the program onto the computer. If you are determined that this is the program you want to install onto the computer, something that we do not recommend, you need to be extra cautious with the installation setup. If you are not cautious, you will install Ask search tools and Movies Toolbar. This plugin is presented by Somoto Ltd., and you may be familiar with the company if you have faced FLV Player or DealBulldog. If you are running either of these programs, you should immediately scan your PC with a reliable spyware scanner and delete potentially running computer threats.

You should not trust that SpeedUpMyComputer will help you fix problems linked to CPU, Memory, Video system, Network, System resources or System registry. Needless to say, the application may indicate existing issues; however, it is more likely that it will miss seriously critical problems and fail to warn you about them. This may be extremely dangerous to your personal virtual security, which is why we advise that you replace the suspicious, potentially unreliable program with a more beneficial one.
